Yahweh in (יהוה‎) : Moses and the Burning Bush Why I Don't Smoke | Wednesday – July 22, 2026 I may come across as a hypocrite, which I am , whenever I write these blog posts , especially when I write about smoking, a subject I still keep returning to apparently , but there are many reasons why I choose not to smoke, but before I get into those, allow me to just again admit that I am a hypocrite, but so are you and everyone else on Earth; I can almost assure you that there has not been a single man walking this Earth that at some point did not contradict himself and his beliefs . So yes, to the extent that I do not smoke I am a hypocrite and I will stand for it without attempting to lie and manipulate, regardless of my reasons for choosing not to smoke, because the reasons, while they may matter, are actually not important when we consider someone a hypocrite, and yes again I am that someone, a hypocrite in this case. Also, I am still a hypocrite, while I have advocated the benefic...

Tibetan ( 卐 ) Prajñāpāramitā Illustration ( ་ ཤེས་རབ་ཀྱི་ཕ་རོལ་ཏུ་ཕྱིན་པ་ ) ( प्रज्ञापारमिता ) The Problem of Raising Boys | Tuesday – July 21, 2026 F or some time it has been fancy to consider an abortion  if the fetus turned out to be female, especially in the Far East, but this practice has really been to the detriment of those societies and perhaps more so to the economy of those societies, especially if we only concern ourselves with the largesse of the purse, or the not so largesse of the purse, really if we only concern ourselves with materialism, do also read " What Should the Ratio of Men to Women Be? ". But I should add that even profane scientists have finally reached the conclusion that it would be stupid to abort female fetuses, regardless of the matter of doctrine, or rather if doctrine is involved in the decision or not, which it would do good to presume that it would not be, in most cases that is, although there are certainly cases where doctrine must be sep...

Photograph of the Atlas globe Should You Read the News? Monday – July 20, 2026 H ysteria and fear are, of course, topics that I have written about in the past , but if there is something above all else in the modern world that encourages hysteria, fear, and anxiety , it must be the news cycle , filled with all sorts of irrelevant and nonsensical information, read " Navigating the Informational Landscape ". Really, what most news source are is really nothing but a filter that effectively filters out information that may or may not be of some value and only leaves you with nonsensical information that is meant to "trigger" you, because of course, modern people are very easily triggered, read " Sentimentalism ", and all the noise eventually becomes so much that most people become completely emotionally blunted on the outside and very easily controlled and manipulated by the same and recurring themes, and this has now reached the point where most people are...

Creation of Light ( אוֹר ) By Gustave Doré Genesis, Chapter 5 | Sunday – July 19, 2026 T he Bible constitutes in and of itself a revealed source , in accordance with the views of most scholars, and in the Western world in particular, this source is believed to be paramount in the course of the development of the history of that part of the world, and this is surely the case, although I should add that many of the Pagan traditions have certainly served an important role both as sources of revelation and as inhibitors of the deviation . Whatever your relationship to the Bible and more specifically Christianity is, you would be remiss if you failed to at least give this document some consideration, even if you are a self-proclaimed Pagan and/or spiritualist, because more likely than not your exoteric relationship with your faith —or perhaps more accurately (?) your supposed "faith"—has been more decided and affected by the Bible than by whatever anchor you believe your totemism...

Portrait of Wu Yong ( 吴用 ) By Utagawa Kuniyoshi ( 歌川 国芳 ) Why Science Fails | Saturday – July 18, 2026 S cience is a topic that I keep returning to, and this is why I must clarify, again, the necessary distinction between sacred science and profane science, as well as that of false science as opposed to both sacred and profane science( pseudoscience ): there are many qualitative differences between sacred and profane science, and it is clear that sacred science surpasses profane science, but then there are certain applications for profane science that nonetheless are important, even though those applications keep changing; this means that both sacred and profane science hold true to some kind of fidelity; false science, as I mentioned in a recent post, lacks all of those qualities and is therefore both false and devilish in conception, and an example that I also mentioned in that recent and previous post was psychoanalysis; now, I will not reiterate the principles of false science...

Biblical ( תַּנַ״ךְ ) depiction of the flight from Sodom and Gomorrah Anxiety & Meaning | Friday – July 17, 2026 S ome of my readers are weary, O' Lord . I pray for them, and I pray for their families; I pray that they will find the light at the end of the tunnel and that they will rejoice in the heavenly beauty of providence , read " Why, for Whom, and What do We Pray? " . Indeed, providence is on my mind again and providence is also a topic that I am going to cover in this latest post of this " Answering Readers series ". If you are also feeling anxious and if you are seeking , then you should read this post. If you are interested in my previous post in this series, covering a man's sorted life, you may find that post here . I should continue to remind you all, because of reasons having to do with " The Law of The Land ", that I am not a professional in the sense that I have been issued any kind of certificate or degree by the state ; I am...

"Surprised-Rousseau" Predators | Thursday – July 16, 2026 P redators * are in the news again... Or perhaps as usual, or rather perhaps they are always in the news? Ah, why is it that humans seem to lack so much regard for the apex predator? Is this perhaps because he is walking among us? That is an interesting question that I may or may not return to in this post or in a post at a later time. The fact though and in the meantime is this: most human beings are weak because they have been made weak by the system ; really, it would be quite right to refer to most humans as system pigs, but since I prefer to use a less confrontational tone, I prefer to simply refer to the populist masses as hordes of zombies or simply as hordes of beasts . Oh yes, make no mistake about that – most people are not the human equivalent of apex predators and this is why most of them gang up on the really strong humans among them that actually fit the bill. The issues here is of course and again as u...

Abraham ben Samuel Abulafia's ( אברהם בן שמואל אבולעפיה ) Conception of the soul Pseudoscience | Wednesday – July 15, 2026 P seudoscience or false science must be distinguished from profane science: profane science, while obviously profane, is still science; false science on the other hand is just that – false. Now, I have not yet had occasion to clearly distinguish between the two, but I have made it a point in every relevant post that profane science has a role to play, even though profane science is a dilapidated form of science, sacred science, and this role is completely material in nature, which is why profane science is predicated on negation of everything that cannot be detected in the most infra-human sense, read " Sacred Medicine ". But all this is still not to suggest that you should take the book or books of profane science and just throw it out, because it is clearly and objectively the case that one can go far with the principles of profane science, far in ...
